“…At European Union level there was a sharp increase in migration flows in 2007 followed by a decrease in 2008 and 2009 as a response to the economic crisis (Herm & Poulain, 2012). Also, the patterns of EU immigration have changed, recording an increase of emigration from countries hardly affected by the crisis (Mol & Valk, 2016).…”

The paper aims to examine the new trends of immigration and their implications on the economy of the host country, particularly on economic growth and unemployment. As the effects of aging population can be felt in many countries, especially in developed ones, migration will continue to play an increasing role in the economic growth of all countries, either sending or receiving. Given the changes in migration trends and migration policies, the impact of the process should be revised. One of the main characteristics that significantly impacts economic growth is the education and skill level of immigrants. In the light of this fact, the research aims to identify the impact of immigration on growth through the skill composition channel. We analyzed the impact of skilled and unskilled immigration on growth, also including the unemployment rate as a relevant factor for the labour market. We estimated six dynamic panel models using the system of generalised method of moments (GMM) to take into account the risk of an endogeneity bias of the migration variables. The results indicate a positive and significant effect of skilled immigration on the economic growth of the receiving country. The results also point to a 1.3 percent β-convergence rate consistent with the values found in the convergence literature which are around 2 percent.

“…The second reason as mentioned above may be behind the frequency of data on migration used in analysis. When researching the influence of the economic crises of 2008 on migration in the EU countries, Herm and Poulain (2012) have found that, nevertheless, growing unemployment according to assumptions should positively effect emigration, but in some cases the trends were the opposite. The authors have indicated that emigration to Sweden and the Netherlands did not rise, the level stayed slightly lower than before the crisis.…”

“…However, these improvements comprised changes in data collection methods and definitions, causing breakdowns in the time series. Specifically, it is important to mention in terms of current research that, Germany revised its immigration figures for 2009 from 721,014 according to the national definition, to 346,216 in conformity with the EU-authorized definition (Herm and Poulain 2012).…”

“…With a rise in the unemployment rate and constraints on the labour market, a significant part of the population of the Southern European countries sought employment in the countries of Western and Northern Europe. However, the outflows of emigrants declined with the financial crisis of 2008, whose global impact led to a reduction of employment across European countries (Herm and Poulain 2012;OECD 2011, 30).…”

The Fourth Wave of Portuguese Emigration: Austerity Policies, European Peripheries and Postcolonial Continuities

Little is known about emigration in European countries. Migratory pressure and the recent refugee crisis have helped keep academic attention over the last few decades focused on immigration, asylum and integration in Europe. However, these dynamics promoting entries into European countries coexist with other fairly significant dynamics promoting departures from these countries. The sovereign debt crisis coupled with austerity policies that asymmetrically affected Europe’s peripheral countries have increased emigration in various European countries. Our book aims to counter the invisibility of emigration from European countries in the literature by examining the particularities of the Portuguese case. In methodological terms, the book compiles the work of authors from different academic backgrounds who have conducted empirical research using a wide variety of extensive and intensive methods. It is argued that when analysing recent Portuguese emigration it is important to examine in further detail: (i) the impact of the 2008 economic and financial crisis and the austerity policies that followed in its wake; (ii) south-north emigration in Europe; (iii) north-south emigration outside Europe and post-colonial continuities; (iv) the importance of reassessing the existing model of Southern European migration; (v) highly skilled and less skilled migration; and finally, (vi) emigrants’ and their descendants’ identities.
